City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling of Christmas.

Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear.

Silver bells, (silver bells)
Silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day.

Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.

Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear.

Silver bells, (silver bells)
Silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day.

Soon it will be Christmas day...
